Computer Fan   

  43

Processors are specifically designed for mobile devices, laptop 
computers, desktop computers, servers, and so on. A processor designed 
for mobile devices consumes less power compared to the ones designed 
for desktop computers or servers.

Computer Fan

A computer fan cools the internal components of a computer by 
expelling hot air from the computer. Computer fans are commonly 
used to cool components that have high power consumption and thus 
generate a high amount of heat. Keeping the components cool helps in 
protecting them from overheating, malfunctioning, and damage.
Fans are used to cool:

• 

Computer chassis 

• 

Processor 

• 

Graphics card 

• 

Chipset 

• 

Hard drive and so on. 

Heat Sink

Heat sinks are used to dissipate heat generated by the processor or some 
high-end graphics cards. Heat sinks generally have a fan mounted above 
them to increase airflow and are made up of fins or blades instead of a 
single block of metal. This helps increase the surface area for maximum 
heat dissipation. A layer of thermal grease is applied between the 
processor/graphics card and the heat sink for easy exchange of heat.
